This is due to the Industrial Era 4.0 which is marked by advances in digital technology and the COVID-19 pandemic which requires churches to rethink their ministry models in the digital space. The Church has entered a new era in the pattern of its ministry mediated by digital technology. This study aims to find models of churches that are emerging in the digital age by utilizing the idea of a liquid church in Pete Ward's thinking as a development of the new character of the church. The research method used is qualitative with a literature study and interview approach. This research shows that the face of the church in the digital era can be distinguished into four models, namely Analog Church, Digilog Church or Phygital Church, E-Church and Virtual Reality Church. The new characteristics offered in this paper are the "Elastic Church" as a model of church in the digital era which can be understood in three aspects, namely the church as a network-participatory community, a resilient-adaptive community, and a missional-inspirational community.

This is due to self-understanding that feels the most correct and views ethnic, religious, racial, and intergroup differences (SARA) as a threat, which in the future can plunge people into religious fanaticism. This paper uses a qualitative-descriptive research method with a literature study approach to books and journals on religious life in Toraja that discuss the topic of inter-spirituality. This article shows how interreligious life now needs to be surpassed and developed into inter-spirituality as a lifestyle of religious people in the context of a plural society. Therefore, this paper aims to explore local values (local wisdom) as an effort to establish and build religious relations that are integrated the concept of harmonization. Thus, the concept of harmonization can be a path of inter-spirituality that has the values of openness, equality, justice, unity, togetherness, and karapasan (peace) in building relations between religious people in Toraja. Harmony is important because it shows an attitude of living together that is cooperative, honest, open, peaceful, orderly, fair, peaceful, and holistic.

The main cause of the ecological crisis is caused by irresponsible human behavior in exploiting the universe. This paper uses a qualitative research method with a literature study approach on the main literature on John Cobb's thoughts on Natural Theology (ecotheology) as well as books and journals from several theologians that discuss the topic of the ecological crisis. In this paper, it is found that there are at least two main crises in ecological issues, namely a crisis of understanding that makes humans massively exploit, dominate and discriminate against the surrounding environment, and a crisis of awareness of the importance of preserving nature. Thus, the author offers the concept of spiritual-ecological man as a keeper to preserve the universe which can be interpreted as nature as a common home, nature as intergenerational responsibility, and nature as the unity and harmony of creation.

This research used a qualitative method that is by observing and conducting interviews with the purpose of obtaining information about Masikka' which uses a combination of language between Bugis and Toraja to find the meaning of poetry and the theological values contained therein. On the essence of Masikka' is done because the people are considered to have merit, influential, useful and have exemplified as a leader and also a hero for the people of Rante Balla. In the concept of Christianity, Masikka' is a lamentation poem that tells the process of traveling the dead to the creator by being sung by a group of people interchangeably. Masikka's culture if it is reviewed from the perspective of Christian faith also contains theological values, namely cosmology, reverence, social structure, hierarchy, togetherness, temporary life, and also the arts. Some of these values are also described in the Bible either directly or indirectly through the stories of Biblical figures. But in practice, the Masikka culture has not yet reflected the value of Christianity completely so that it needs to be transformed into Christianity.
